The Founders Reading Room

Scaling a company is never simple. The challenges shift quickly, and the best answers rarely come from one framework alone. The Reading Room is your curated companion to the books that matter most for founders and scale-up leaders.

Each article distills a landmark business book into practical lessons you can apply immediately. These are not just summaries, but reflections that connect big ideas to the realities of building and leading at scale. Use this collection as a place to pause, learn, and connect insights across disciplines — from culture and leadership to innovation and execution.
